Just bought them off ebay. Its the DVDs of Books I and II. I must say I'm really enjoying them. I'm half way through the first DVD now.

Ys II is much better than Ys I anime, but they are both very interesting for Ys fans.

Ys II is a little better than the Ys I series, but I still liked them both. I like the style of Ys I more just because I love that old skool stuff, but that's just me. However there is one thing that REALLY sucks in the Ys II anime and it's how badly they screwed up the final boss. It was really a shame, since he was like my favorite villian of all time.

I think the bonus videos are nice as well... but the editing on them is absoutely horrid. I mean, it's worse than a project for a high school communications class circa 1988.

The main JDK guitarist, who always looks at the camera, man, he friggin' rules.

I keep forgetting to pick up book II. Ys I is fun to watch, I won't rate it since its a novelty for me. The remix/medley soundtrack is cool.

The one thing I can say I was very disapointed with is Dark Fact. I had once thought Falcom Classics on Saturn butchered him as bad as possible...

...I had horrifically underestimated.

Yeah and why do they call him "Dark Factor"??? Is that his real name?

Its probably just another mistranslation, since Fact is phonetically closer to Fakto in katakana.

But his real name definately is not Factor.

Although its another mistranslation, I still like Dulk Dekt from the SMS game since it was my sole Ys experience for years.

Don't watch the dub, it changes a lot of names.

Haha, oh the many versions of Dark Fact's name! Personally I like Dark Fact the most, but I still love a name like Dulk Dekt or any other crazy one like that, haha. I believe there is one really long one, but I can't remember.

I've got the english IBM version CIB and Dark Fact's name is Malificus. Thats gotta be the most effed up one. Not only that, but the box refers to him as a "fiendish wizard".

Not only that... but it also says that he has the 6 books of Ys and is using their power against the people(if you haven't played the game, he doesn't have all the books).

I also like how the box says that: "A first in computer games- you play a role" and "when you fight, you fight arcade-style... fast!".

Looking at the "Background" section of the manual, its says that a farmer discovered a precious metal known as "kureria". They later had to seal it all up in the Holy Shrine of Sarumon.

It does say that Malificus is a descendant of one of the "wiseman" of Ys(must be Wiseman Ficus).

It actually gives away that the "guardian statues" have been turned mortal by Malificus using the knowledge of the Books which reveal the secret of kureria's magic.

The dogs are listed in the manual as "Kaenine", the eyeball monsters are "Eyebols", the phoenix is "Nofenix" and it goes on from there.
